We actually beat Forest away in their promotion season, and they didn’t lose another home game for bloody ages. They gave us a football lesson at Ninian Park though.

Perhaps not correct. Apparently Liverpool, Everton & Spurs have done it.
I remember them beating us 3-0 at NP that season mate. You are right in saying they gave us a football lesson. They did go up as 3rd place team, behind Chelsea and Wolves. May have been the first season 3 teams went up from 2nd tier to top tier.
I loved watching them the next season onwards. Lloyd and Burns were on a sort of downwards spiral in their career but Clough and Peter Taylor turned that around with them. R.I.P Larry Lloyd
